Dr. Femi Adekanmbi, a prominent All Progressives Congress (APC) leader in Ondo State, has praised the state's youths for opting to engage in dialogue rather than protest against the government. In a statement issued on Saturday in Akure, Adekanmbi, a former Commissioner for Special Duties, Culture, and Tourism, described the youths' stance as "patriotic and supportive" of the current administration.
Adekanmbi lauded the youths for their maturity and understanding of the country's current situation, stating that their decision not to protest demonstrates their loyalty and commitment to the state's and nation's development. He commended Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa's proactive approach to addressing youth concerns, which has helped prevent protests in the state.
The APC chieftain also applauded President Bola Tinubu's commitment to infrastructure development in Ondo State, citing the approved road projects, Benin/Akure/Ilesa Road and Ore/Akure/Ondo Road, which will significantly impact the state's economy and citizens' well-being.
Adekanmbi urged the youths to continue supporting the government and expressing their opinions through peaceful means. He appealed to them to remain calm and peaceful, even in the face of challenges, and thanked them for heeding his advice not to participate in protests.
